of an organic compound was subjected to estimation of nitrogen by Dumas method in which volume of evolved (at STP) was found to be . The percentage of nitrogen in the compound is - [nearest integer] (Given: Molar mass of is , Molar volume of at )
Solution
Volume of N2 gas is equal to 22.4 ml at STP Mole of N2 gas = Weight of N2 gas =
% of N in organic compound
Hence, The percentage of nitrogen in the compound is 14%
